    Anyone start a Dating Website?

    If you think all you need to do is customize the SkaDate home page ... you're nuts. I'm telling you ... if you use SkaDate ... as it exists right out of the box ... with a few cosmetic modifications ... your site is going to crash and burn. It is riddled with more bugs and design flaws than I...

    Cool. Welcome! Sounds like one hell of a great parenting plan. Nice.

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    HANDS DOWN ... the WORST decision I ever made in my 20s -- was getting married. F*ck me. I'm still writing the checks. Nothing ... and I mean NOTHING ... has wracked more financial havoc in my life than family court. And I don't even have kids. Ain't THAT a bitch ...? Do NOT let the...

    What would you tell your 18 or 25 year old self?

    GOLD! MINDSET 
    What would I tell my 25-year-old self ...? Hard to say ... I'd be too busy bitch slapping the shit out him. The things I know now ... that I wish I knew then ... would fill a book. Not even going to attempt it. The real question -- in my mind -- is what will I want to bitch slap myself over...

    Do you prefer to associate yourself with your web site?

    EXECUTION 
    A site with no contact information screams fraud. I would not trust it -- nor would most people. You will lose a ton of business. And if you have no contact information -- Google will take notice. Trust is very important when you are doing business online. If anything, I go out of my way to...

    Minding the Cash Register

    You know ... I was talking about something the other day that I thought I should share as a PSA here. You would be amazed how many (sucessful) people have been robbed blind by their own employees becuase they were too busy to mind the cash register. As a result, their secretaries and...

    Success + exotic car = Sued?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    From the perspective of a trial lawyer, I agree that anyone with money has a bulls eye on their back. One of the very FIRST things I want to know before filing a lawsuit is whether the judgment is collectible. If the person I am suing in judgment-proof or otherwise eligible for bankruptcy...

    Anyone start a Dating Website?

    By "blowing up" I simply mean to say "scaling fast." Few if any sites will have achieved complete market saturation in 24 hours ... (Obviously)

    Anyone start a Dating Website?

    Well ... I am not suggesting it blows up LITERALLY overnight ... but I don't accept the premise that slow and steady wins the race either. My school of of thinking is that speed in execution is essential. And if the product performs well in one market ... I am going to race it into every...

    Anyone start a Dating Website?

    My website is irrelevant to what you are doing. If you want to see what a successful dating site looks like, you will find no shortage of them online. The most important sites you want to pay attention to are your competition. Study them. Make spreadsheets comparing their benefits and...

    Anyone start a Dating Website?

    Sure. I'll bite. SkaDate is a good basic platform ... BUT ... be prepared to shell out a lot of time and money on software customization. If you think you are going to buy a SD software package and knock it out of the part -- you are nuts. It took me 13 months in development and about...

    Have you ever outsource to India?

    I've had very good results. The key for me has been fourfold: (1) I sought out referrals from other people doing what I do. I was not going to hire anyone at random. The referrals were spot on. The guy I chose to run with does excellent work. (2) Be exceptionally clear with your...

    gold digger prank (can anyone with lambo confirm? lol)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Hmmm ... woman worth $300 million ... hooks up with guy worth $100 million ... instead of her high school sweetheart ... coincidence? Nope. Even with $300 million in the bank ... money still plays a role. Look ... when I sit out on my deck ... living the good life ... do you think I say to...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Well ... if that's your definition of hitchhiking ... then absent existing wealth ... we are all hitchhiking ... whether are dependent on the indulgences of one person (a wealthy spouse) ... or many people (customers). Few people acquire wealth all by themselves (i.e. mining for gold -- in...

    gold digger prank (can anyone with lambo confirm? lol)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Well ... I think we all know (myself included) what M.J. was "referring to" in TMF ... if you are talking (strictly) about "building a business" then "marrying wealth" would not meet that (narrow) definition ... but ... if you define "Fastlane" in the broader sense ... (i.e. "fast road to...

    gold digger prank (can anyone with lambo confirm? lol)

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Well ... for all the bitching and moaning and WTF-ing ... I have yet to see a logical counter-argument presented. Someone want to make the argument marrying magnitude ("gold-digging") isn't Fastlane ... that Melania Trump (for example) made a mistake in marrying a billionaire ... that she...

    Call it whatever you want ... I don't care about "other" people's (slowlane) values ... what you call "f*cked up" I call "fastlane" ... you want to earn it the old fashioned way ... fine. To each their own.

    Let me tell you about where I live ... I live in a 5000+ square foot palace ... on ten acres of land ... on the side of a golf course ... which (in turn) spans out another 50 acres .. Why ...? Because my fiance married (and divorced) a deca-millionaire. Her sister (on the other hand) ...
